Subject: RE: [netsaint-devel] Service check delay weridness


Hi All, hi Brad,

We monitor the main network components and critical server from a customer
with netsaint 0.0.7 on a SuSe 7.1 Linux.
There are no special services defined, only check-host alives and PING
services. In total about 120 Host and/ or network devices.
A few weeks ago the KPNQuest network went down and netsaint was sending out
notifications as e-mail and sms's immediatly.
Looking at the status detail, near all hosts and services were still in an
OK state. However the allert and notification logs were filled up. Finally
it took about two hours before everything turned red.
I think it has someting two see with the way that netsaint is handling the
results of the service checks.
I tried to change some configuration values but still got simular results.
In a normal situation netsaint was able to check all services within a
minute. 
It seems that all checks were properly handled, notifications send,... but
the treadment of the results take a long time before it is showed up in the
webpage.

In an other situation we had also a network outage. On certain ( blokked )
servers a lot of services were sheduled. In that situation i had exactly the
situation you described in your message. In the performance info the 'check
latency time' is increasing tremendious and finally it took also a very long
time to recover.

The problem with this kind issues is that there is no easy way to simulate
or duplicate these situations certainly not in a running environment.

Again as Brad's request, any ideas are welcome !!!

Best regards,


Ludo Bosmans

Hi... I'm using netsaint 0.0.7 on FreeBSD

Yesterday we had a network outage. A problem with our modem kept us from
being notified for at least thirty minutes, so Netsaint had been dealing
with a lot of down/unreachable systems for awhile. After restoring the
outage, most of the systems Netsaint were monitoring recovered. However,
many services were still showing up critical even though I could reach
them manually.

I went to each individual service and found that, for some reason, the
next service check was scheduled for an hour and some twenty odd minutes
after the last service check. This doesn't make any sense. I currently
have a normal interval of 5 minutes, a retry interval of 1 minute, a max
try times of 2, and all of my time interval settings at the default. Also,
I noticed that the "Last state change" time was in the future!!! It was
after the last check time. 

Any ideas what might be causing this? I dug through source with no further
clues. I read a post that suggested enabling the "check for orphaned
service checks" option, but I haven't had any other good leads.

Hope someone can help me out. Netsaint/Nagios is a great product and I
look forward to contributing anything I can.

Thanks,
Brad J
